It’s been two months since The Battleship New Jersey left her home port in Camden for the dry dock, and the project has seen significant progress.

The crew is diligently working to have the ship back home and open by June 29, just in time to serve as a prime viewing spot for the Fourth of July fireworks.

While this timeline might seem extended, it's actually a testament to the efficiency and success of the project. Thanks to meeting fundraising goals, the team is able to tackle additional "reach" projects.

These extra maintenance tasks include welding a steel ring around the outward propeller shafts to prevent water leakage into the ship, performing ultrasonic testing to assess and reinforce the hull's steel thickness, and reapplying approximately 18,000 linear feet of sealant on the hull's seams to ensure watertight integrity.

The final dry dock tour will be held at the shipyard on Sunday, June 9. Tickets for the remaining tours can be purchased on the battleship's website.

The last dry dock tour will take place at the shipyard on Sunday, June 9, and tickets for remaining tours can be purchased on the battleship's website.

The Wildwood Video Archive stopped by a few weeks ago to film two different videos. One was a standard dry dock tour (with Joey saying Anode wrong a million times), and the second was a 360 virtual reality tour.

A 360 VR tour is unlike anything in the world due to the interaction you can have with the video

A 360 video tour is an immersive type of video content that allows viewers to explore scenes in all directions—up, down, left, right, and even behind them. This type of video is filmed using special 360-degree cameras that capture the entire surroundings simultaneously.

You can experience this tour in a few ways.

If you are watching on Youtube via your computer: Use your mouse to move in every direction to see your surroundings.

If you are watching on your phone: You can tilt and move your phone to change the perspective.

If you are using VR headsets: The video position responds to your head movements.

Please let us know what you think of this kind of video and if we should do more in the future.
